It's possible that this modem is mode-switched by the kernel. So at the moment usb_modeswitch tries to handle it, it is already gone and in 'transition' to modem mode. It obviously appears as "12d1:1001" which is the modem mode, so something has succeeded in mode-switching it.

If that assumption is correct, you should get the modem mode even if usb_modeswitch is globally disabled (in /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf).

You can follow the process by calling "dmesg" often after you insert the modem. The mode switch is indicated by a hint of "disconnect" in the output, followed by the discovery of a new USB device.
